No Internet without Tiers – from fantastic fiber to your web browser

When your monthly internet quota is out, you still can use certain sites, but no other. Why? One part of the answer is the tiering internet service – the setup where some companies own, maintain and develop enormous networks of fiber cable. They connect internet users and make the world go round. Celebrated tier 1 operator Telia Carrier runs "The Viking Network", 65 000 kilometers of cable from California to Russia, providing the largest content providers in the world Internet access. Why is the Internet infrastructure planned this way? And what does it mean to the regular user? You will hear • Mattias Fridström, Chief Evangelist at Telia Carrier • Erka Koivunen, Chief Information Security Officer at F-Secure
